Our Board Members

Natalee Whitesell is a survivor of the mental health system. She started Table Greenville to be a landing pad—a place where women can be believed, challenged, heard, and welcomed.

During a season of rest and processing her own trauma with mental health and her marriage, Jesus clearly said to her, “Bring them to the table.” So she will chop some vegetables, literally and figuratively, and make some meals.

Natalee believes in Story. A redemptive story. For all. She believes there is power in listening to the stories of other women and inviting them to the Table—to a place they may have felt uninvited from because they were not believed.

She has a BA in Elementary Education from Clemson University and, as she likes to say, some street cred. She is a mother of four: Eli, who is married to Sakurashun and serves as a missionary with YWAM in Switzerland; Abe, 21, a senior at The Citadel; Chloe, 20, a junior at The Citadel; and Maeve, 18, who will serve with YWAM in Hawaii.

Natalee is currently pursuing training in Spiritual Direction, which she hopes to use in serving the women who come to Table Greenville.

Allison Anderson serves as Secretary of the Table Greenville board. She is an educator with 14 years of experience teaching in South Carolina schools, along with two additional years helping teach a career program for young adults in Gaborone, Botswana.

Allison is a member of First Presbyterian Church and enjoys spending time outdoors with her husband and four children, who range in age from 16 to 23.

Alongside her experience working with others, Allison brings a passion for photography and capturing the emotion behind the lens. She believes everyone has a story to tell and is excited to help Table Greenville create an environment of respite: a soft place to land for women who need it.

Katlyn Garcia has called Greenville home for 20 years. She holds a BSEd from the University of Georgia and is a mother of five sons, whom she homeschooled for many years.

After escaping an abusive marriage nearly eight years ago, Katlyn developed a deep heart for helping other women heal from psychologically abusive situations. Her own experience has shaped her desire to create spaces where women feel safe, believed, supported, and able to begin healing.

Katlyn serves as Chair of the Board for Table Greenville and is passionate about helping build a place of respite and restoration for women in the community.

Robin Inglis serves as Treasurer of the Table Greenville board. She brings extensive experience and a deep passion for helping women heal from psychological abuse.

Robin is especially skilled in walking alongside women who have experienced psychologically abusive relationships, helping them recognize what they have been through and begin moving toward healing. Her experience, wisdom, and compassion are an important part of Table Greenville's vision to create a safe and restorative place for women.

Chameka K. Parks, M.Ed., LPC, NCC, is a Licensed Professional Counselor and National Certified Counselor with experience providing trauma-informed mental health services to adults in clinical and community-based settings.

She is the founder of Journey to Victory Counseling Services, where she provides counseling and specialized mental health services. Chameka also brings extensive experience in education and school counseling, supporting youth across diverse educational settings.

She is committed to increasing access to quality mental health care and empowering individuals and communities toward healing, resilience, and overall well-being. Chameka brings valuable clinical and community experience to Table Greenville's mission of creating a safe and restorative place for women impacted by trauma.

Kathryn A. Thomas is a Colorado native who has called Greenville home for the past 10 years. Her life and work have centered around children, families, education, and missions for more than 55 years.

Kathryn began working in early childhood education at age 18, when she oversaw and directed a pilot program at the Little Flower Community Center in downtown Denver. She went on to earn her Directorship for Child Care Centers and spent several years working with the DAV Headquarters in Lakewood, Colorado.

Her experience has also included facilitating missionary work in Belize and helping establish Charis Bible College in Atlanta beginning in 2005. Kathryn became a widow in 2003 and is the mother of a daughter in Abilene, Texas, and a son in Cheyenne, Wyoming.

Kathryn sees Table Greenville as a positive and safe gap in the community—a place of respite for women whose lives have been impacted by trauma. She hopes that the wisdom and insight gained through a lifetime of serving and supporting families will help Table Greenville fulfill its vision for women and the broader community.
